Resonator
The volume and length of intake systems are
matched exactly. No changes may be carried out
during service or repair work. When attaching
components (hoses and tubes), pay attention that
all connections are air-tight.
The surfaces of all components affected by the
strong pressure variations in the intake system
are especially subject to strong oscillations.
The effects of temperature, such as warming of
the air filter housing can cause changes in the
rigidity of surfaces.
In order to prevent solid body sound caused by
surface oscillations of the intake system from
being transmitted to the vehicle body, the
following points must be observed during service:
The whole intake system must be isolated
from the bodywork and mounted in rubber
bushes without tension.
The air channels of the intake system must
not contact the bodywork components.
Insert foam insulation at points of contact with
bodywork or other components.

engine and mountings. The bodywork is therefore
one of the most important vehicle components
where NVF is concerned.
The vehicle components described so far were,
according to their function, individual
self-contained noise sources. The bodywork
however, connects and houses all the vehicle
components.
The bodywork is subject to vibration from both air
borne sound and solid body sound.
The bodywork must absorb all oscillations and
impulses from all components and if possible
transmit none of these to the vehicle interior.
The largest proportion of NVH behaviour of a
bodyshell is in the steel panels of the roof, sides
and floor. They are strongly stimulated by the
bodyshell structure and work like a loudspeaker
transmitting noise.
Further demands on the bodywork
Good crash behaviour
Large interior space
Corrosion resistance
Low weight
Good aerodynamic shape
A compromise must be made on some of these
points. One example is between high body rigidity for
good NVH performance and good energy absorption
in an accident by the use of crumple zones.
Example:
Watertight does not mean sound tight, therefore
the following points must be taken into account:
